OSDTypeText segfault

Description

I've been trying to reproduce a OSDTypeText::Draw() segfault with debugging symbols enabled, but have been unable to. The problem happened when the draw routine was working with the m_message string.

I'm attaching a patch which uses QDeepCopy and a lock to avoid memory corruption in OSDTypeText. I can't reproduce the crash so it's hard to say if this fixes the problem, but it should.
